Rimmel London Oh My Gloss: ($5.99 each for 0.22 oz. from KmartUlta and Target) RIMMEL LONDON is definitely one of my all-time favorite drugstore brands, and lately their products have ranked among my most reached-for, and loved, makeup picks. Their Oh My Gloss! Lip glosses were made with me in mind: the colors are gorgeous and highly saturated, they contain the perfect amount of shimmer and shine, and have a lightweight, non-sticky texture. Furthermore, they are very comfortable on the lips, and they are lightly moisturizing. I=The doe-foot applicator applies the gloss evenly, and it neither migrates, nor does it bleed into lip lines. I get a few hours of wear-time per application, and repeated application throughout the day does not result in drying out my lips.  It has a light semi-floral scent that is not heavily perfumed, and the scent fades soon upon application.

• Up to 6 hours of colour, shine, comfort and moisture for your lips.
• Lip Loving gloss with Argan Oil and Vitamin E.

  2. What a terrific list of easy to find gifts and stocking stuffers from the drugstore! I am going to look for the nude Sally polishes - how did I miss those? And the facial mask was too cute for words. And truth be told, nothing has surpassed Curel Skin Rescue for my dry skin in winter. I need to pick some up. Excellent post!

    1. You know, it's funny– I never see it in the stores, either. It is really quite lovely, and definitely worth ordering online if you can't find it. Have you checked your local Ulta? You might have some success there.
